About Me


Jaide Reina Jones Hi there! I am a New Orleans native now living in Lake Charles! I started cooking when I was 5 years old & have loved it from that very first day. When I am on stage (in the kitchen), my accent flows as thick as gumbo roux and I toss out one-liners as easily as I toss shrimp into my big black cooking pot. My clients laugh, learn and after I'm done get to eat the “show” – a meal that could include crawfish, alligator, crab, shrimp or other justly famous Louisiana delicacies. I have served my spicy Cajun fare to senators and congressman, movie stars and music luminaries. I am available for travel but only in the U.S. I am also open to be hired on to be your Sultry Chef!! "Y'all come back now, ya hear!"
